I don't think I've ever been to an arena show where the sound was any way decent. Arenas usually have terrible acoustics and a muddy sound as a result, as well as being completely soulless. I saw Iron Maiden and The Smashing Pumpkins in two separate arenas and I could just about make out which songs they were actually playing because the sound was that muddy.

Big shows are not necessarily louder. The loudest gig I've ever been to was in a very small room with a band playing out of their socks. Shows are not necessarily better because they are bigger, that's all down to the concert-goer and what the concert-goer prefers. In my perspective I prefer club shows.
